Less than a day after helping the Indiana Fever secure a victory in the WNBA Commissioner's Cup, guard Sophie Cunningham set social media ablaze with a stunning gym photoshoot. The 29-year-old veteran, known for her on-court hustle and off-court style, teamed up with Adidas to showcase a sleek all-purple workout ensemble that had fans hitting the like button hard.
“Suddenly, I want to work out,” one fan commented, echoing the sentiments of many who were captivated by the images. Another admitted, “We are not worthy,” while a third praised the color choice: “Fantastic color on you.” The photoshoot, shared by Adidas, is the latest example of Cunningham's growing influence as a style icon in the WNBA.
Cunningham joined the Fever on a one-year deal before the 2026 season, but she's already thinking long-term. “I’m not mad about the money,” she said. “I just wanted more years because I love it here. I wanted to get a house so I could bring my dog and donkey to Indy with me. That’s it. That’s the truth. I think we have something very special here in Indiana.” Her commitment to the team is paying off, as she's averaging 9.6 points and 2.7 rebounds per game this season.
The photoshoot isn't the only thing keeping Cunningham in the spotlight. She also appeared in the 2026 Sports Illustrated Swimsuit issue, which dropped in May. “It really was so fun,” Cunningham told SI Swimsuit. “You just feel so empowered, and something I really do love about it is like, they choose … different body sizes, shapes and sizes, different ethnicities, like they just like empower all types of women and it really was like frickin’ awesome. It was awesome.”
This isn't the first time Cunningham has turned heads with her off-court looks. Earlier this season, she had fans buzzing with her 'BBQ baddie' pregame outfit, which drew praise from Fever faithful. And when she's not busy being a fashion plate, she's also not afraid to call out fans who cross the line, as she did when she called out a fan who followed her car for a photo.
At this point, it feels like every time Cunningham posts something, the internet takes notice. Whether she's on the court or in the gym, she knows how to command attention. With her blend of talent, personality, and style, it's only a matter of time before she goes viral again. For now, fans are just happy to enjoy the show.
